Last night, The Prodigy brought their bass, their sub-bass and their sub-sub-bass to Hollywood for a Wednesday show that went off like an Italian soccer match. And while Liam and company have always had reputation for schooling a crowd, we had to wonder what life would be like if The Prodigy actually schooled you in English…
Rule 1: Everyone in the room is “my people.” Said people may be modified by adding “up top” or “on the floor.”
Rule 2: A select group of “my people” are deemed “my warriors.” The difference is occupation of a certain geographic segment “on the floor.” “Warriors” are never “my people up top.”
Rule 3: “Warriors” have limited number of verbs, including “goin around” and, er…”goin around.”
Rule 4: “Goin around” involves dislocatng your index finger and having to explain to your wife the next day why her 30-year-old husband has to go to the emergency rom for moshing. Just ask URB scribe and Prodigy historian Rich Thomas.
Rule 5: All of “my people,” whether “up top,” “on the floor,” or “warriors”"goin around” make up the “massif.”
Rule 6: When rhyming “voodoo” with “you do” on the first and second line of a 4 line verse, feel free to break from the traditional AABB or AAAA or even AABA rhyme scheme, pause silent for the next seven beats, then say “Yeah!”
